Ok... I'm going to stop updating this topic so I suggest it should be removed from the sticky feature...

It was meant to work for mafia games and people clearly avoided and made this new thread:
http://www.bay12games.com/forum/index.php?topic=47641.0

without consulting nor considering it so...

Since you seem to want to discuss this here, I will explain again:

I considered it, and didn't realize I needed to send you a PM to ask your permission (since honestly, this just says "replacement thread" on it, and most Mafia game folks don't even post here).  It was discussed (though admittedly not for particularly long) within the subforum itself, which seemed like the most relevant avenue for such discussion.

Additionally:

I commit myself to update this at least once everyday.  If someone thinks he can do this better I don't mind.  Just copy the format and make a new topic and I'll erase this one.

I maintain the other thread entirely on my own, by reading every post of every game played in the subforum.  I contend that this is a "better job" that results in less work for moderators and a general faster turnaround time.

If a mod needs a replacement.  It's really easy to post once in a thread... I don't know how long you'll be able to keep up that inspection.  They know what they want and can describe the game better than you.  Or do you expect to read EVERY game?  ::)

Most mafia folks don't post here because it wasn't in the mafia subforum because I wanted to give other games the opportunity to have replacements too.  When Dakarian suggested a replacement thread for mafia I said that mine had that goal.  If they wanted it in the subforum I could've just moved it and be done with it.

You still felt entitled to go your way without asking anyone and you now have the responsibility.  Enjoy.

for future references... In forums, before making a new topic... try analyzing existing topics and suggesting modifications instead of just taking charge.

I've read your pm.  I understand your points.

It's ok.  If you read all games you're probably the right one to do it.

I'm not that active in b12 lately, anyway.

This thread wasn't really used, as you say... Due to bad judgement on my part:  placing it outside the mafia subforum.

I'll just lock this and wait for it to be unstickied.
